The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has libtiff packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Buffer overflow in the readextension function in     gif2tiff.c in LibTIFF 4.0.6 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (application crash) via a     crafted GIF file. (CVE-2016-3186)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the     cpSeparateBufToContigBuf function in tiffcp.c in LibTIFF     4.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted TIFF file. (CVE-2018-12900)

  - The TIFFWriteDirectorySec() function in tif_dirwrite.c     in LibTIFF through 4.0.9 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (assertion failure and     application crash) via a crafted file, a different     vulnerability than CVE-2017-13726. (CVE-2018-10963)

  - TIFFWriteScanline in tif_write.c in LibTIFF 3.8.2 has a     heap-based buffer over-read, as demonstrated by     bmp2tiff. (CVE-2018-10779)

  - In LibTIFF 4.0.9, a heap-based buffer overflow occurs in     the function LZWDecodeCompat in tif_lzw.c via a crafted     TIFF file, as demonstrated by tiff2ps. (CVE-2018-8905)

  - A NULL Pointer Dereference occurs in the function     TIFFPrintDirectory in tif_print.c in LibTIFF 4.0.9 when     using the tiffinfo tool to print crafted TIFF     information, a different vulnerability than     CVE-2017-18013. (This affects an earlier part of the     TIFFPrintDirectory function that was not addressed by     the CVE-2017-18013 patch.) (CVE-2018-7456)

  - An issue was discovered in LibTIFF 4.0.9. There is a     int32 overflow in multiply_ms in tools/ppm2tiff.c, which     can cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted image file.
    (CVE-2018-17100)

  - An issue was discovered in LibTIFF 4.0.9. There are two     out-of-bounds writes in cpTags in tools/tiff2bw.c and     tools/pal2rgb.c, which can cause a denial of service     (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted image file. (CVE-2018-17101)

  - LibTIFF 4.0.9 (with JBIG enabled) decodes arbitrarily-     sized JBIG into a buffer, ignoring the buffer size,     which leads to a tif_jbig.c JBIGDecode out-of-bounds     write. (CVE-2018-18557)

  - An issue was discovered in LibTIFF 4.0.9. There is a     NULL pointer dereference in the function LZWDecode in     the file tif_lzw.c. (CVE-2018-18661)
